------Related skill: agent-customization. Load and follow prompts.md for template and principles.
Guide the user to create a .prompt.md.
Extract from Conversation
First, review the conversation history. If the user has been working on a repeatable task pattern (e.g., explaining code, generating tests, refactoring), generalize that into a reusable prompt. Extract:
The core task being performed repeatedly
Any implicit inputs (selected code, file type, context)
The desired output format or style
Clarify if Needed
If no clear pattern emerges from the conversation, clarify:
What task should this prompt help with?
Should it take arguments or use fixed context?
Workspace-scoped or personal?
Iterate
Draft the prompt and save it.
Identify the most ambiguous or weak parts and ask about those.
Once finalized, summarize what the prompt does, suggest example invocations, and propose related customizations to create next.
Remember to follow the agent-customization guidelines to create highly effective prompts.
